  • Euclid Space Telescope's Near-Infrared Instrument Ready to Draw a 3-D Map of Galaxies of the Distant Universe
    NISP Press Release Euclid space telescope’s Near-Infrared instrument ready to draw a 3-D map of galaxies of the distant Universe ESA’s Euclid mission to study more than a billion galaxies is a step closer to launch as its two instruments are now built and fully tested, including the complex near Near-Infrared Spectrometer and Photometer (NISP) instrument delivered by an international consortium coordinated by France, with partners from Italy, Germany, Spain, Denmark, Norway and the United States. Once Euclid is launched from French Guiana in 2022, the NISP instrument will feed the world largest near infrared wide field camera put into space and will deliver near-infrared photometry, spectra and redshifts of tens of million distant galaxies providing a detailed description of the 3-dimensional structure of the universe, and its evolution as function of look back time. Euclid has a 1.2-metre mirror telescope that is designed to work at both visible and near- infrared wavelengths. It will collect light from distant cosmic objects and feed it into NISP and the second instrument, the VISible instrument (VIS), both working in parallel and observing the exact same regions of the sky at each exposure of the telescope. Euclid will survey the 3-D distribution of galaxies and dark matter and map the geometry of the Universe with the aim of making accurate measurements of the mysterious Dark Matter and Dark Energy, which make up most of the cosmos. No-one yet knows what Dark Energy is, and Euclid will be the yet most powerful tool for cosmologists and astronomers looking to find out.

  • Asia Explained
    ASIA EXPLAINED TO ANALYZE, TO DEBATE, TO UNDERSTAND AE MicroMacro – Japan Piotr A. Glogowski September 9, 2019 JAXA’s European expedition What happened? On Jun 14 th 2019 Japanese Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) and The European Space Agency (ESA) signed a cooperation agreement on the X-Ray Imaging and Spectroscopy Mission (XRISM). This is the first contract signed between JAXA and a n European partner since 2015 , and it’s one out of total three signed in June 2019. T he second one was signed with the German Aerospace Center (DLR) and the last (but not least) with the French organization Centre National d’Etudes Spatiales (CNES). European Union hasn’t been an outer space for JAXA so far, but with those agreements the Japanese have recently significantly extended their presence on the European soil. Who is who? JAXA was established in 2003 and has an operational budget of 1.4bln USD . It is one of the most influential space organizations in Asia, competing with Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) and China National Space Administration (CNSA) with budget s respectively 1.4 bln USD and 2.0 bln USD (data for 2017). Two previously mentioned European space agencies DLR and CNES are associated with ESA (through partnerships concluded by their mother countries). ESA manages the second world’s biggest space budget of 6.1bln USD (the richest NASA had 19 bln USD in 2017) and has 22 member states. Poland became an ESA member in 2012 and contributes 30 mln EUR annually. Why it matters? Poland is the third youngest member of ESA, and has little experience in the institutionalized space sector.

  • Aissat-1 Monitoring the Shipping Traffic from Space
    Monitoring the Norwegian Waters AISsat-1 Monitoring the Shipping Traffic from Space To meet this goal Norway will launch an experimental nano satellite named AISSat-1 in the first quarter of 2010 to find optimal techniques for a future operational system. Placed in a low polar orbit of an Indian PSLV launcher, the satellite can monitor the high North and the high South fifteen times a day, thus, continuously monitoring the oceans Norway is responsible for and has an interest in. The project is mainly carried out by Norwegian companies on behalf of the Norwegian Space Agency, but the satellite platform is based on a Canadian construction. The main participants involved in the project are Norwegian Defence Research Institute (FFI), University of Toronto, Kongsberg Seatex and Kongsberg Satellite Service. FFI has been the initiator for the project, and also carries the main responsibility. The Space Flight Laboratory at the University of Toronto (UTIAS) has developed and built the satellite platform, Kongsberg Handover of the first model, Bjørn Narheim from Defense Reearsh Institute at right Seatex developed and built the AIS sensor handover to Norwegian Space Centre, here represented with Bjørn Ottar Elseth. including software and Kongsberg Satellite Photo credit: Norwegian Space Centre Service will operate the ground station. ocean areas.

The NRD aims to geolocate ship navigation radars within 10 km circular error probable and verify AIS positions. The 10º NRD antenna field of view will nominally be pointed towards the horizon in order to maximize the area coverage and view of the ships’ navigation radar main lobe. Operating in a near polar low earth orbit the Norwegian area of interest may be covered between 10 and 15 times per day if pointing the antenna suitably. Achieving the desired geolocation accuracy and area coverage, while minimizing polarization loss, requires a highly capable attitude determination and control system. The signal processing capabilities of the Zynq Ultrascale+ system-on-chip enables the radar signal processing in orbit, although also requiring a large platform power generation capability.
